Flooding
FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer maps Special Flood Hazard Areas (Zone AE, including floodways) within the borough along Overpeck Creek and Wolf Creek, plus some 0.2%-annual-chance (Zone X shaded) areas. Bergen County's current FEMA flood maps took effect on August 28, 2019. The borough has a stormwater page but no flood-specific page was found. To check a specific address, use the FEMA Flood Map Service Center.
